With the exception of the 1200mm f/5.6, I have probably owned and used every FD lens ever made. Here are my favourite FD lenses: 20-35/3.5 L 35-70/2.8-3.5 SSC 35-105/3.5 80-200/4.0 L 24/1.4 SSC Aspherical 24/1.4 L 35/2.0 SSC TS 35/2.8 SSC 50/3.5 Macro 50/1.4 SSC 50/1.2 L 55/1.2 SSC AL 55/1.2 SSC Aspherical 85/1.2 SSC Aspherical 85/1.2 L 100/2.0 135/2.5 SC BL 135/2.0 200/1.8 L 300/2.8 SSC Fluorite 300/2.8 L 300/4.0 L 400/2.8 L 500/4.5 L I still use my FD lenses occasionally, via a FD-Micro 4/3 adapter on my Lumix GH1.
